Connecting two amplifiers

audiophony H10795 Loop Amplifiers - amplifiers For the use of a pin system or a system with a large cover:

Connect the loops to the terminal blocks provided for this purpose: Loop terminal block of the amplifier.
Insert an audio source into input 2 or 3 of the master amplifier.
Connect the master amplifier to the slave amplifier using the connection cable.

Installation

6-1 Example of a perimeter layout audiophony H10795 Loop Amplifiers -
layout The installation consists of an electrical wire that runs through the perimeter of the room forming a loop.
This loop is connected to an audio amplifier.
The magnetic field generated by the large loop around the room will pass through the small loops in the prosthesis and, by the induction principle, the electrical signal present in the large loop will be found in the small loops.
This transmits the signal from the audio amplifier to the prosthesis, which then returns it to the hearing impaired person’s ear.

6-5 Operation
The loop wire is connected to an audio amplifier. The hearing aid has a coil, often called a”T” or”T-coil”, which is placed inside the hearing aid and consists of a wire forming turns. The magnetic field generated by the large loop will pass through the small loops in the prosthesis and, by the induction principle, the electrical signal present in the large loop will be found in the small loops. This transmits the signal from the audio amplifier to the prosthesis, which then returns it to the hearing impaired person’s ear.
The loop can be installed at floor or ceiling level, more precisely between 1.10m and 2.20m from the listening height (ears).
The presence of an earring is often indicated by a blue logo representing a crossed out ear and a letter T. Generally, a hearing aid has two major positions, the M and the T. The M position makes it possible to perceive the sound thanks to the acoustic pressure as a microphone, while the T position (T for telephone) directly receives the audio signals transmitted by induction via the integrated coil. Some prostheses combine these two modes of operation by the MT position. It allows the hearing impaired to perceive both ambient noise and signals transmitted by induction.![audiophony H10795 Loop Amplifiers
